There were fory little houses in a place they called High River

And everyone knew Tim since the day he was born

He was a little different

Some might call it slow

But when Nellie moved to town

She saw his heart of gold



They found each other and never spent another day apart

Whoever would have dreamed

In his quiet eyes she'd find the piece

To make her life complete



Oh you could say it was a work of art

Like someone took a brush and painted there hearts

Together they made such a beautiful thing

And oh if there was anything that they could do right

It was painting love in the perfect light

So we could see

That love is a masterpiece



Yeah

Well Tim always had a little trouble with letters and numbers

So Nellie paid the bills and read all the mail

No one worked harder for miles around

Tim was the best farmhand and Nellie was proud



A year went by of saving their nickels and dimes

They had a little boy

They named him Daniel

And he became there pride and joy



Oh you could say it was a work of art

Like someone took a brush and painted there hearts

Together they made such a beautiful thing

And oh if there was anything that they could do right

It was painting love in the perfect light

So we could see that love is a masterpiece



Everybody said that they were so close to heaven

That they didn't have far to go

Somehow it all made sense that they all went together

That night on that dark road



Oh you could say it was a work of art

Like someone took a brush and painted their hearts

Together they made such a beautiful thing

And oh if there was anything that they could do right

It was painting love in the perfect light

So we could see

That love is a masterpeice



Yeah, yeah, yeah

Love is a masterpeice

Yeah

Love is a masterpeice

Love is a masterpeice

Love is a masterpeice

Hooh

Love is a masterpiece

Love is a masterpeice
